St Michael’s Mount – Music on the Mount 12 May 2013

^8TH ANNUAL MUSICAL EXTRAVAGANZA

Only day of the year when entry to the grounds, castle and gardens will be FREE OF CHARGE

As a big thank you to the local community and all its supporters and friends, St Michael's Mount will open its doors free of charge on Sunday May 12 for its eighth annual Music on the Mount.

 Organised entirely by the Islanders, the event celebrates local music and entertainment and throughout the day visitors will be treated to live music and dance from concert bands to Cornish clog dancing, from harpists to belly dancers.

 Local musicians, school choirs and children’s entertainers will all be on hand so get ready for Celtic fiddlers, pop, Motown and Gospel choirs plus some traditional Cornish dancing.

Entertainment and music will be happening across the island from Marazion Apollo Choir singing on the Bowling Green, to the step-clogging of the Carnkie Cloggers up on the castle battlements, to the intimate harp playing of Jade Hamzelou within the castle walls.

 For children, Captain of the West storyteller Mark Harandon will be on hand spinning his yarns and there will be FREE Punch & Judy shows, face-painting, giant garden games and a bouncy castle for all. The castle quiz and garden trail will also be running on the day allowing little ones to explore and learn with a prize on completion.

Entrance on the day is totally FREE to the castle, gardens and all the music and entertainments. It promises to be a fantastic day for all the family!
